he won of course but I expected him to pull away alot better than he did, I was about 3 lengths behind him

 

Wow...I guess you didn't do so bad. Considering your truck with tires, lift and other mods.

 

Did he get out of first gear? I raced one with my 98 Camaro SS and we were dead even. I ran a 12.9 @ 107mph stock with that car. 6 speed too!

 

The Viper is advertised at zero to 60 in under 4 seconds.
But the Viper is all about top end.
IIRC, its top speed is in the 195-200 mph range. show-room-stock

 

lol are you sure he was racing?

 

Trust me - he was letting you stay close....

That car can run high 11's stock

 

Better get my hip-waders on!

 

A better thread title would be "I ran over a Viper GTS". Especially after seeing your pics.

 

Vipers are insanely fast cars...

I thought my bro had a fast car with that 3000 GT VR4 he has, he raced a viper and got his butt handed to him... which is why he is BOMBing the VR4 now...

I can get that car to almost 60 miles per hour on first gear too..

With the mods in your sig, if you raced him and stayed 3 lengths behind, it was because thats where he wanted you to be. I would say he was cruising for optimal milage

 

he he he, thats funny!

 

i ran a bolt on viper with my heads cam vette and walked him by 3ish cars...

 

I don't have the 40s on it now though, I have some tiny 30 inchers, its a lot faster than with the big ones. who knows, he took of fast and we got up to about 70 before hitting some traffic in a 35 zone

 

What are you talking about ?????

 

The viper had an exhaust, cold air intake, maybe some underdrive pulleys, bolt on stuff. His vette had new heads, a new cam, probably full exhaust.
